Question

what I have:
a google search form (displayed on all pages)
a wordpress page to display search results

what I want to do:
when a search is performed, redirect to the page containing the search results

how do I do this?

the search results page is a wordpress-created page with a permalink domain.com/search-results

Answer 1

if your template files doesn’t have a file called “search.php” then create one,
this is were all the results will be shown, do a standard wp loop and style it..
thats if you were using the standard wp search, in this case

apply a template tag to the top of a new php page,

<?php
/*
Template Name: Search_Results
*/
?>
<?php get_header(); ?>
or include a new one
<?php include(TEMPLATEPATH . '/header_search.php'); ?>

<!-- INCLUDE GOOGLE SCRIPT -->

<?php get_sidebar();?>
<?php get_footer();?>

this should print out your results…
